Chapter 42 Central Plains Lu Zhengfei (9)

The First Brigade fought fiercely on the front line, and Fang Jianxiong, who was far away in Anqing, was in deep torment. Don't look at Fang Jianxiong's usual posture that no one cares about, the First Brigade of Anhui went to Wuhan against the Beiyang Army, known as the strongest army of this era.

At first, Fang Jianxiong didn't plan to send the main force over, but Han Yan persuaded him: "Since the marshal wants to send troops, he should send the strongest soldiers." One can be used to try the heat of the Anhui army, and the other can show the world that the marshal has never been prejudiced against the alliance. The three, after the first battle, the former allies in the army, don't they return to their hearts? ”

Han Yan's words moved Fang Jianxiong, in this era, you have to rely on fame to eat. How does fame come about? Hype! This Fang Jianxiong will, even if he won't, people from the Internet era, don't they know the hype? If there is no topic, let's create a topic, and it is not difficult to be a celebrity in this era! The benefits are many!

Tian Jiyang called into battle today, and sent a telegram to plan. Fang Jianxiong immediately called Jiang Baili, Hamilton and others over, and gathered together to study how to fight this battle against the map. A group of people analyzed the situation and came to the conclusion that seven or eight thousand people fought three or four thousand people, and they had the advantage in everything, so there was no reason to be invincible. But Fang Jianxiong still didn't have an ansheng, and many times he didn't rely on equipment to fight, he used to fight soldiers like patrol battalions, but this time he was against the Beiyang Army, and he had no confidence at all.

Because of this matter, Fang Jianxiong didn't even think carefully about what to do when he called from Yangzhou Huyan Aobo?

In Yangzhou, Huyan Aobo was very difficult. Fang Jianxiong didn't reply for a long time, and he also had the intention of testing this person.

The anxious waiting continued, Fang Jianxiong always stood in front of the map with a solemn expression, kept smoking, and kept looking at the map. The others were not easy, Jiang Baili had been talking to himself and didn't know what to mutter. Zhejiang dialect is not easy to understand, as if to say, "No problem!" No problem! ”

Hamilton was infected by Jiang Baili. He was also muttering in German: "The result of the deduction should be correct." ”

Jensen, Paulus, two Buddha-like. Standing beside Fang Jianxiong, they didn't mutter, but their expressions were also very strict. Li Xiaochuan, the newly promoted division commander. Lying directly on the table, with a group of young staff officers: "Let's deduce again!" ”

Zheng Quan and Han Yan, the two of them sat upright, but the teacup in their hands was already cold, and the two of them were still holding it like treasures.

Hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and Fang Jianxiong was stunned, but he didn't look back. The others all turned their heads to look at the door! Li Muyan, who is also the director of the telecommunications department, brandished a telegram and rushed into the headquarters, everyone's eyes were focused.

"Great victory, great victory! The first brigade is a big victory! Li Muyan took a breath. Then he shouted with all his strength.

Fang Jianxiong, who was facing the map, held the wall with both hands, and lowered his head for a long time. There was a freeze in the headquarters, and then a group of young staff officers jumped up and cheered enthusiastically. A room full of mostly young people. Especially those staff officers, jumping and jumping with excitement.

The older ones were more calm, Han Yan stroked his beard slightly and smiled, and Zheng Quan looked at the young man with his hands behind his back and smiled. Jiang Baili was also young, but he was still much calmer, and his eyes turned to Fang Jianxiong. This Fang Jianxiong was still in front of the map. It's just his forehead against the wall, his hands clenched tightly.

"Thief God, I'll let you play with me. How about it, Lao Tzu won! Fang Jianxiong roared excitedly in his heart, hearing the one who won the great victory, the black-bellied otaku in his previous life trembled like an electric shock.

Fang Jianxiong looked like this, and everyone fell silent. In this room, the one who is under the most pressure is Fang Jianxiong, everyone can understand his mood, and they are all waiting for him to recover.

Finally, Fang Jianxiong turned around, and said with an excited wave of his fist: "Okay, the first brigade is fighting well." Mr. Han, please draft a telegram to the effect that: When the good news came, the whole army cheered, and the First Brigade played the spirit of the Anhui Army and broke the myth that the Beiyang Army was the best in the world. The glorious achievements of the First Brigade of the Anhui Revolutionary Army will always be remembered in military history. ”

In fact, it was just a skirmish, and Fang Jianxiong was so elevated, that others couldn't approve of it in their hearts. But after this battle, Fang Jianxiong's prestige is not to mention, and the significance of another battle is indeed extraordinary. So no one spoke.

"Brother Baili, the speed of our army's reorganization will be accelerated in the future, and at the end of the slowest month, I will wave my division on my back and beat Ni Sichong." Fang Jianxiong's confidence came up, the six towns of Beiyang were defeated, and Ni Sichong counted a bird's egg.

Jiang Fangzhen was also very excited: "The second division from Hefei called, and the reorganization went very smoothly. The disadvantage is that there are 30% of the recruits, and the 1st Division and the 2nd Division of the Anqing side have more recruits, as many as 40%. The situation of the Fourth and Fifth Divisions in Wuhu was not bad, the original security forces were supplemented, and the escort units also underwent strict military training. It should be possible to pull out to fight, and when you see blood, you will be a serious veteran. ”

"Beiyang is the enemy, but you can't fight too hard with Yuan Shikai's Beiyang Army, it's someone else who gets cheaper. In this way, the third division of Anqing turned to Wuhu, and the fourth and fifth divisions immediately began to assemble in Hefei. At present, there are a bunch of large and small military governments in the territory, and they are in a mess, and it is necessary to unify military orders and government orders. Fang Jianxiong was full of confidence, and Jiang Fangzhen immediately said, "I'll go back and prepare." ”

Li Muyan reminded: "Dashuai, it's time to talk about this matter of Anqing City." ”

Fang Jianxiong said: "This matter is not in a hurry, let's see how the government itself is doing." ”

Anqing was happy here, and someone from the communications office came again, and he reported at the door: "Dashuai, Hanyang is in an emergency." ”

Fang Jianxiong sighed and said, "Is it too big a casualty?" As he spoke, he took the telegram and looked at it, then his face changed, he raised his hand and handed it to Jiang Fangzhen, and he circled around the headquarters. Jiang Fangzhen handed it back after reading it, and Fang Jianxiong said, "Everyone take a look." ”

After all the core personnel read the message, the scene fell silent again. Li Xiaochuan's angry voice broke the silence: "Shameless! ”

Han Yan continued: "Commander, this matter must be treated carefully, Huang Xing is a revolutionary father, and he is close friends with Sun Cannon. ”

Fang Jianxiong nodded, pondered for a while, and said, "Call back the first brigade, withdraw!" ”

"Dashuai, no!" Zheng Quan was anxious, shouted, and stepped forward anxiously: "Dashuai, Wuhan is the first place of righteousness." Under the current crisis, it is withdrawn like this, and I am afraid that the world will criticize it. ”

Li Muyan had a desire to compete with Zheng Quan for favor in the past, and when he saw this, he sneered: "What can you do if you criticize it?" Could it be that the first brigade is called life swallowed? Now that things are like this, the First Brigade stayed, and it was also killed by someone. ”

The last sentence touched Fang Jianxiong's heart, and he immediately decided: "Hanyang will be ours sooner or later, and the bottom line is to withdraw to the back a little later!" Let the Beiyang Army teach these things a good lesson. ”

Zheng Quan stopped persuading and stood silently and waited. Everyone didn't move, knowing that there must be a follow-up. Sure enough, in less than a moment, Li Yuanhong's telegram came. "Brother Fuguo, all the mistakes are Yuan Hong's fault, and the first brigade in Anhui can't be withdrawn." Then he said a bunch of things, all in all, Li Yuanhong was taking responsibility, and Li Bodhisattva really didn't call it in vain.

This telegram from Li Yuanhong came from the bottom of his heart, originally Wuchang did not have many decent troops, and an eighth town also went to Sichuan. Looking at the 60,000-strong army after the establishment of the military government, after a few battles, basically all the troops that could fight were lost. Or why is the Hunan army taking the lead? At present, the Beiyang Army on the opposite side is only more than 30,000 people, and it can suppress Hubei to fight. The only one who could confront the Beiyang Army head-on and defeat the opponent was reinforcements from Anhui. Your name is Li Yuanhong, how can you let it go?

Fang Jianxiong asked people to call back: "Reinforcements from all walks of life are coming, whether the First Brigade has or not is not related to the overall situation, and Commander-in-Chief Huang is here, this one person can top 100,000 soldiers." ”

Li Yuanhong quickly called back and said: "This matter has nothing to do with Commander Huang, it is all the scum in the Hubei army who said it privately, and Yuanhong will definitely punish it severely to reassure the heart of the First Brigade." ”

Only then did Fang Jianxiong call back and said: "The First Brigade withdrew to Wuchang, and there is nothing to talk about." ”

Hanyang's side was also noisy, and Li Yuanhong, Huang Xing, Sun Wu and others got together to discuss how to deal with it. Sun Wu didn't stop, and mocked a few words on the side, what a day after day of defeat, only the young master of Anhui could defeat Beiyang for a while, but he was forced to escape.

Huang Xing's face turned white, and he said on the spot that he wanted to pick a son and go back to Shanghai.

Song Jiaoren, who is also from Hunan, is also there, and he is a peacemaker. persuade both sides not to quarrel, and the good man Juzheng is also persuaded on the side. In the end, it was Li Yuanhong who took all the responsibilities, and while keeping Huang Xing, he telegraphed with Fang Jianxiong to discuss.

Li Yuanhong sent another telegram, and this time Huang Xing, Song Jiaoren, Ju Zheng, Sun Wu, and others all signed their names, saying that the Anhui army had outstanding combat strength and was an indispensable main force in the defense of Wuhan.

After a telegram exchange, Fang Jianxiong finally relented, the first brigade could not be withdrawn, but it could only be used as a reserve. And in the telegram mocked, there are countless examples of ancient and modern battles, and I have not heard that there are no reserves at the time of the decisive battle. These words were directed at Huang Xing, and the defense of Wuhan commanded by Commander Huang basically had no reserves. And emphasized: "The best defense is to attack, and the best attack is to strike at the enemy's weak points." In the end, he said: Our Anhui army will go north to the Central Plains, crusade against Ni Sichong, and threaten the Jinghan line.

In the end, Huang Xing, despite his reluctance, accepted the construction of the 1st Brigade as a reserve. and sent his son Huang Yiou to Shanghai, so as not to stay and provoke right and wrong. As for Luo Hongsheng, it didn't end well, the Hankou counterattack, he ran the fastest, and this time he did this again, Li Yuanhong took him down directly, and put him in prison first.

This scapegoat, he should be and should be, and he should be inappropriate. (。 If you like this work, () vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
